FROM THE PUBLISHER - Dedicating his remarkable collection of essays To those three forgotten greats  Picasso, Joyce, Le Corbusier, Honorio Bustos Domecq has, with a perspicacity bordering on genius, addressed himself those serious questions raised by contemporary art, literature, and architecture that continue to trouble us. As Gervasio Montenegro writes in the Foreword: Whomsoever longs to dive into the depths of the novel, the lyric, the essay, conceptualism, architecture, sculpture, the theater, and the whole gamut of audiovisual media, which are so much the mark of our times, will, in spite of himself, have come to terms with this indispensable vademecum, a true Adiadnes thread which will lead him by the hand all the way to the Minotaur. It is our great good fortune that through the combined efforts of Jorge Luis Borges, Adolfo Bioy-Casares, and the translator Norman Thomas di Giovanni, these exemplary chronicles (a thoroughly diverting spoof of the critical essay) have been brought to the attention of the English-speaking world.
